AbstractNonpenetrating blunt trauma causing pulmonary pseudocyst is very rare. A 25-year-old young male suffered from motor vehicle accident. He was transferred to our hospital with severe hemoptysis. Immediately he was intubated and kept under mechanical ventilation. A chest X-ray film and CT-scan revealed a marked cavity lesion surrounded by an extensive infiltrate and alveolar air consolidation. Ordinary, it has benign clinical courses by conservative management. However, he was suffered massive and continuous bleeding from endobronchial tube. Therefore, one lung ventilation using a uni-vent tube blocker was performed. After twelve hours blockade, the cavity lesion was enlarged and trans-bronchial bleeding was continued severely. Emergency right lower lobectomy was carried out successfully.
